Locations
While MMPA is based in Metro Detroit and calls the Great Lakes region home, the cooperative has national and international connections. MMPA dairy farms are spread across Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin, with their milk flowing into our plants or directly to a wide range of dairy customers. Our locations include five processing facilities throughout Michigan, Indiana and Ohio, with wholly-owned subsidiary brands, Superior Dairy in Canton, Ohio, and Heritage Ridge Creamery in Middlebury, Indiana.
